The straggler was caught napping in bed at Cramer's, and was politely invited to arise and answer a call to the Blue Front. He appeared at that tribunal so hazy from disturbed rest and sedimentary Lager, that the magistrate billeted him in Room No. 1, Borough Inn, for the night, to which fragrant cavern he was accordingly escorted. Next morning he was brought before the Justice for examination, and answered irre spectively to the names of John Miller and Anton Yost, either of which he thought good enough for the occasion. The charges against the prisoner were, having confisca ted the carpet-bag and umbrella of a col porteur,—left reposing on a chair in Black's bar-room, while the owner looked after the inner man,—appropriated a pair of boots here,—worth seen dollars, sacrificed for one, Out afterwards recovered,—attached a waistcoat there, and forayed upon the com munity everywhere.

The last seen of the plunder was in possession of the prisoner on the turnpike between this place and Washing ton. TS%CCItt9 HAS MIDIVVED MoTtE 'TITAN NET' TrNE.—On Friday, P2th inst., Constable Hollingsworth arrested and brought before Esq. Welsh, one Entlin halyard, stone cut ter, in the employ of the Pennsylvania Rail road Company. nt the bridge over Shawnee Run. The indivllual was charged with uproarious drunkenness and general distur bance of the peace of the North Ward. He was too drunk to appreciate the Magistrate's dignity, so was ordered to the cellar until the tide should ell. In the evening, the theinotoeter having, fallen several degrees, the prisoner was brought out for a hearing. The employees of the Company had been paid off the day bef..reand unwonted pletho ro of iwkot, i iduerd liquidation. The stone cutter, a jolly tar, had spread inure canvass than he could navigate tinder, and after a series of very wild and useless tacks, Inns lreught or all , tanding by Hollingsworth. On appearing a second time before the 'Squite he had his wits about him, and dis coursed the Court in .alt water lingo with a thietioy that our "e , pecial" fails to render with justice. He had been a sailor nearly till his life—a man of war's man—and had cruised in all latitudes, high and low; had been round and round the world, and had seen life in most of its phases. He had ap parently come to grief in most lands at hieb his craft touched, for he had been in the',Calabose at New;Orleans, the Black Hole I at:Calcutta, the;,Dungeons of Hong Kong,the Stocks at Havana, and lord been chained between two greasy niggers nt the Cape of ; Good but shiver his (the tarry sailor ; man's) timbers, Commodore, it' he had ever swung his hammock in such quarters as the "hold" of that bulk of a prison ship of ours. “Look here, shipmate, (Ilullingsworth,) give us your dist.

The remains were identified as those of, 'Joseph McLane, High Constable of the Iliorow*li of Washington. The unfortunate' man had been to Lancaster on Monday to make his return to the Judges of the Court of Quarter Se-ssions, and elated with hav ing sers cd his country in this performance of ditty, tool: aboard a fatal dose of the deleterious IJuid of that city. Not wishing to appear before his constituents in his cur , he bore round by the way of our borough, where it is probable he added to his already ponderous. load. Ho quartered himself un the Bellevue porch. as above menticticd, and the jury was there to perform the melon icholy duty of pronouncing upon the man ner and cause of his decease. Pending the consultation Richard was authoriied to pro cure a conveyanco for tan removal of the corpus.

No sorrowing friends attended, but the melancholy procession whipped up Walnut street, cheered by the assembled mourners. The last been of the funeral cortege the feet of the deceased were seeking a resting place on Richard's shoul der, while the latter occasionally stirred up the remains of his fellow constable with the but of his whip. It is but just, both to the host of the Bellevue House and the character of his liquor, to add,: that McLane got nothing to drink at this bar. lie was drunk when he came to the house and no liquor was sold him.

The first piece of news from our newly knighted friend was the startling informa tion of the means by which ho won his patent of American nobility, to wit, that a brief, job at "the profession" had suddenly run out, a new enterprise had been incon tinently strangled by the "stringency of the money market," the want of "protec tion for the manufacturing, interest," and a bran new constitution fur the Kingdom of Kansas.

Farewell Digger! 'May your next effort be equally successful. The city news is too new a matter to your countrified correspondent for him to at- I tempt the regular posting up.

But "the Harpers like the horde of small publishers of the present day have seen the pruvient taste of the public—they have studied and analysed it, and think that they know just what it will bear, just what it will greedily devour without cloying its ap petite.

A Nrwsrtiwa REeortmr..—The Philadel phia Sunday Dispatch in answer to an in quiry from a correspondent respecting the qualifications of a Reporter for the public press gives the following: A newspaper reporter should, in the first Place, be perfectly familiar with the local history of the city in which he earns his bread. He should be able to write with fa cility, and with some degree of elegance, and ho should be enabled to undergo an uncer tain amount of physical and mental labor without fatigue and without grumbling. -- He should not only have the ability to write freely concerning what he knows, but he should possess the facolty of being able , o ferret out a knowledge of tacts which are not apparent to persons in ordinary pursuits. He must have judgment to know what to dilate upon, and what to touch lightly, in writing his reports; and he should have the firmness and courage to "nothing extenuate, nor set down aught in malice," through fear or.favor in the exercise of his calling. So much fur the qualifications of a reporter. As regards his duties, it would be easier to tell what they are not than what are. It is not absolutely necessary that he should bo able to nurse a crying baby, or to set a broken limb, in order to make a good reporter; but it would do him nu harm to be able to attend to such dutie4, and to do all other mutters and things which men who are expected to be present almost everywhere and under all sorts of circumstances, should be able to perform. Philadelphia contains nearly one hundred and thirty square miles of territory, and the reporter of a Philadelphia newspa per is expected to be familiar with every thing of interest going on upon every square foot of that somewhat extended space. He must not know it next month, or next week, or after it has been in print, but he must know it at once, and he must have the story correct, or dread the indignation of those who have been misrepresented. His duties require the possession of a species of übiquity, for he has often to write intelligently and promptly concerning events that are in progress at opposite extremes of the city at the same instant, and this, too, when circumstances to be written of occur almost nt the moment his paper is going to press. He must be able faithfully to report the proceedings of a religious body. under stand thieve "lingo," make no errors in shetching the doings of a scientific conven tion, know'cnough slang to be able to report a prize fight, be competent to make an ab stract of' the oration of an Everett, and do it ttii, often with his hat fur a deck. He must he able to al;stain from food for an in definite period, and write with locomotive speed et:accruing, complicated facts, and make no mistakes. if a man possesses the qualifications sot forth above, and if he be able to perforn all the duties we have sketched, he may hope to make a good re porter. He needs courage enough to resist temptation, fur his pursuit necessarily great ', ly exposes him to it. If he has not moral courage, he had better go to sawing wood or scraping the streets; for a weak reporter becomes the victim of pernicious habits be fore ho suspects his danger. Ile needs to possess a degree of. heroism, too, fur a re porter's business throws him much in positions of peril; while the feelings of a sensitive itemizer are constantly liable to be shocked by scenes of suffering and out rage. To bon good reporter requires a rare combination of qualities and abilities, and to be a poor reporter is to be a very poor tool.

As the mournful cortege passed by the Exchange, a witty cobbler named Bounce, whose habi tation was in this locality, suddenly popped his head out of his stall, and thus addressed the Doctor: "Fine morning, Doctor; I per ceive you are carrying home your work." Medical men have nut since attended funer als in that city. It is usual in some of the towns in Ireland for the apothecary as well as the doctors to attend, wearing scarves and hatbands of white linen tied with black or white lutestrings, according as the de ceased may have been married or not.
